A FINE JAPANESE TAZUKE-RYU SCHOOL INLAID MATCHLOCK CARBINE, OZUTSU TEPPO EDO 1615-1868 Of massive proportions, the 30-monme (26mm bore) carbine with a heavy 71cm barrel finely decorated with gold and silver wire inlays, the lower section with the maru ni kuginuki (nail-puller in a circle) mon family crest on a dense asa-no-ha ground, the other two thirds of the barrel depicting Tekkai Sennin blowing his soul out of his body, the underside signed Tomioka Saheiji Yoshihisa, the stock made from sturdy Japanese oak wood, approx. 11,8kg and 103 cm overall. Cf. C Sinclaire, Samurai, The weapons and spirit of the Japanese warrior, pp130-131, and I Bottomley & A P Hopson, Arms & Armour of the Samurai, pp.124-125, for other examples of Japanese inlaid hand cannons. Also, the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, access. no.2892-D3. The maru ni kuginuki mon was used by several families, including the Hori Clan. Tekkai is typically depicted here as a sennin (immortal hermit), wearing a coat and skirt made of mugwort leaves and carrying a tall wood staff. Tekkai Sennin was an Immortal who blew his soul out of his body in order to meet his master on Mount Hua. When his spirit tried to return, he found that he had been cremated. He thus had no choice but to inhabit the body of a lame beggar lying nearby. This type of large teppo carbines known as ozutsu ('cannon') was mounted onto castle walls to protect it against invaders. They were also used on ships, on horseback, as assault weapons to blast through door hinges and to launch incendiary or explosive arrows (hiya) to set fires during sieges. These powerful firearms had large recoil and bails of rice would be necessary to support the gunner's back. Heavy round lead balls were used as ammunition, with sizes described as monme. Taking 30-monme shots, this carbine is one of the largest examples of Japanese Edo Period hand-held firearms. By the 19th c., these had become obsolete and were only used to call monks to prayer, to signal the time in cities, and for official inaugurations. Yoshihisa was a gunsmith from the Musashi Province, an area stretching today from Tokyo to the Prefectures of Saitama and Kanagawa. He is recorded working circa Tenpo 14 (1843) and was an official supplier to the Shogun.

§ Michael Ayrton (British, 1921–1975), Siren, 1963, bronze, etched no. 0/9 to underside, unsigned 22.50cm (9in) Provenance: Acquired by the vendor directly from the artist's estate Literature: Michael Ayrton, Drawings and Sculpture, Michael Ayrton, Cory, Adams and Mackay, London, 1962, (ill. b&w pl.158) Michael Ayrton: An Illustrated Commentary, Peter Cannon-Brookes, City Museums and Art Gallery, Birmingham, 1978 (ill. b&w pl.180) Other Notes: An eclectic artist and writer, Michael Ayrton established his reputation as a distinguished painter, printmaker, sculptor, designer, illustrator and critic. Starting out as a painter alongside the Neo-Romantics including Paul Nash, John Piper and Graham Sutherland, Ayrton did not discover his interest in sculpture until 1948 when he visited Pisa and came across the sculptures of Giovanni Pisano (c. 1250-1315). Turning to sculpture in 1953 without any previous training, Ayrton mostly relied on the advice given to him by Henry Moore and his own study of Donatello, Rodin and Degas. Ayrton's versatile production of sculptures, illustrations and poems reflect his interest in mythological themes. Trips to Cumae, Greece and Crete immersed Ayrton in the world of Ancient Greek mythology. In 1956, his first visit to the ancient site of Cumae, near Naples, had a profound effect on his art. From the early 1960s onwards, Ayrton created and wrote numerous works drawing upon the myths of the Minotaur and Daedalus and Icarus, which pervaded his art for the rest of his career. In the present work, Ayrton certainly took inspiration from his travels. According to Peter Cannon-Brookes, the figure was inspired by the Cumaen Sibyl from Ovid's 'Metamorphoses'. In the story recounted by Ovid, the Sibyl asked the god Apollo for eternal life - taking a handful of sand and asking to live for as many years as the grains of sand she held. Later, when the Sibyl rejected the god's love, Apollo tricked her and let her wither away, claiming she should have asked for eternal youth instead. Eventually, she grew thinner and more decrepit with age and after a thousand years, only her voice was left. In the present sculpture, the emaciated figure, stripped to the bone, is highly reminiscent of the fate of the Cumaen Sibyl and illustrates the capriciousness of divine intervention.
